Physicians have relied on computerized axial tomography scans (CAT) for years. Today, many dentists rely on 3D imaging scans to provide a detailed view of the mouth and skull. 3D scans are quick and straightforward to perform. A Cone Beam Imaging System is at the heart of the 3D scanner. The cone beams are used to take literally hundreds of pictures of the face. These pictures are used to compile an exact 3D image of the inner mechanisms of the face and jaw. The dentist can zoom in on specific areas and view them from alternate angles.

3D x-rays provide our team a more comprehensive view of your entire mouth which helps us locate issues that arent always identifiable in a 2D image. In turn, we can coordinate treatment planning and dental services for our patients in more depth and explain treatments with greater clarity and accuracy. Other benefits include:

We've taken the next step in the progression of delivering crowns and straightening teeth in the quickest, most advanced way possible. Our new video scanner now eliminates the need to take impressions (molds) in most cases. This intraoral scanner takes a video scan of your mouth, providing highly accurate virtual images. The benefit is that we no longer need to put goopy stuff in our patients' mouths, often causing a gag reflex, to get these impressions. This scanner improves the patient experience while at the same time increasing the quality of the impressions we use for Same-Day-Crowns and SuperFast Invisalign services.
